00:04APPLAUSE
00:31Hello and welcome to Countdown.
00:33On this day in 1899, Fred Astaire was born.
00:37The report from his first audition said,
00:40dances slightly bored, can't act.
00:44Mm-hm. You've got the wrong member of my family in
00:46if you want to talk about dances.
00:48When Pasha's choreographing, he's always looking at these
00:51old-time clips and scenes and trying to draw things from it.
00:54It's very interesting. Have you kept dancing?
00:57We do salsa on holiday when nobody's going to recognise me.
01:01Oh, that's lovely.
01:03It's the, you know, the woman's the one that has to twirl around
01:06and he's there in control and trying to minimise his talent
01:10so I don't look too awful, which is very gentlemanly.
01:13Let's meet our contestants.
01:15Aaron is with us for the second time.
01:18He's a team leader in HR.
01:20I'm still not quite sure what he does.
01:23But if I was in your team, how would you rate me?
01:27I don't like the pause.
01:31I don't know how you'd perform in that role, then.
01:33What would I have to do in your team?
01:35You'd have to process new starters,
01:37so write up new contracts and offer letters and send out references.
01:43Thank you, Aaron.
01:45And we've got Ian, who's a train driver.
01:47I am, yes. Where do you train from?
01:49I train from London Victoria and London Bridge.
01:52OK, so in your cab. Yep.
01:55And I'm waiting, I'm a passenger. Yep.
01:57What's the first thing you do?
01:59I set the radio up. Come on, let's see you set the radio.
02:02So I press some buttons, set the radio up.
02:05Have you got a degree? I have, I've got two degrees.
02:08I can't see the use for them at the moment.
02:10You've done the first...
02:12So I've set the radio up and then I set...
02:14There's a computer system over here and I go into that and set that up
02:17so that the passengers know where the train's going.
02:20Yeah. Well, you haven't spoken to the passengers.
02:22No, the train does that. The train announces...
02:24The train itself? Yes, yep.
02:26Is that a better voice than you?
02:28It is, yes. Much better. OK.
02:30And do you turn the engine on?
02:32It's an electric train, so it's on all of the time.
02:35Oh, no fun, really, is it?
02:37I just put a key in and turn it.
02:39Yeah. And how long did it take them to train you to do that?
02:43So it took me, it took them a year to learn the rules and get my licence.
02:49What, to do that?
02:51To do that, turn the key on? Yeah.
02:53I could do that. That's a year.
02:55But there's a lot of rules as well and you have to learn about speeds
02:58and what you can do in an emergency and that kind of thing.
03:01Round of applause for our contestants.
03:03APPLAUSE
03:07Hi, Susie. Hello.
03:09And hello again to Michael Crick.
03:11I'm going to be talking to you about your latest biography
03:14on Nigel Farage. Yep.
03:17First game, let's get going.
03:19Aaron, your letters.
03:21Hi, Rachel. Hi, Aaron. I'll go for a consonant, please.
03:24You start today with H.
03:26And a vowel.

04:16MUSIC PLAYS
04:27Aaron? Eight.
04:29Ian? Six.
04:31What's your six? Washed.
04:33Aaron? Handiest.
04:35Very well spotted. Excellent.
04:37APPLAUSE
04:41How are you doing, Michael Crick?
04:43Could wind and shined.
04:46Yeah, instead would be a seven,
04:49but can't do better than handiest.
04:51Well done, Aaron. Ian, your letters.
04:53Hi, Rachel. Hi, Ian.
04:55Could I have a consonant, please? You can indeed.
04:57R. And another one.

06:00Ian? Six.
06:02Aaron? Six as well.
06:04Ian? Pricks.
06:06Aaron? Exactly the same, pricks.
06:08In the corner. I got pricks, too.
06:10Oh, well. Sorry.
06:12I deviated a little.
06:14With Parkers, the coat's from a Siberian language.
06:17One of the few to get into the dictionary.
06:19Thank you, Susie. Aaron, your numbers.
06:21One large and the rest small, please, Rachel.
06:24Thank you, Aaron.
06:26The soft choice, possibly.
06:28Let's see how simple this one is.
06:30Five littles are four, two, eight, eight, ten.
06:36And a large one, 100. All the evens.
06:38And the target, 706.
06:417-0-6.
06:43MUSIC PLAYS
07:09MUSIC STOPS
07:14Aaron? 7-1-4.
07:167-1-4. Ian?
07:187-1-0.
07:207-1-0.
07:22OK. Ian?
07:24OK. 4 plus 2 is 6.
07:264 plus 2 is 6.
07:28Plus 8 divided by 8 is 1.
07:308 over 8 is 1.
07:327.
07:34Multiplied by 100. 700.
07:36Plus 10.
07:3810. Yeah, 4 away.
07:40Rachel?
07:42There were some ways for this one.
07:44You go down, so take 100 minus 10,
07:47and instead of times, you multiply 7 times by 8 for 720,
07:51and then you can take the rest away.
07:54The 8, the 2 and the 4.
07:567-1-6.
07:58APPLAUSE
08:02First teaser coming up.
08:04Had break. Had break.
08:06And the clue, had a break but didn't have a chocolate wafer,
08:09she had this.
08:11Had a break but didn't have a chocolate wafer,
08:14she had this. See you in a minute.
08:24APPLAUSE
08:26APPLAUSE
08:30Now, I left you with the clue, had a break but didn't have
08:33a chocolate wafer, she had this.
08:36And the answer is hard bake, as opposed to half-baked.
08:41What is hard bake?
08:43Hard bake, well, it's a historical term,
08:45but I think we'd recognise it.
08:47So it's a sweet made of boiled sugar or treacle with almonds,
08:50so it's like almond toffee, essentially.
08:52Thank you.
08:54The scores are 14-13.
08:57Very close.
08:59Ian, who's the train driver, tell me about leaves on the line.
09:04So, in the autumn time, the leaves fall off the trees...
09:07We know that, bitch.
09:09..and they cause, like, an oily surface on the rail
09:13that makes it slippery.
09:15Really? So it can make it difficult to stop
09:17and difficult to start moving the train.
09:19You know it's going to be autumn.
09:21How do we get the leaves off the line before we get the train?
09:25Because it only happens maybe one or two days every autumn.
09:29It's not the whole of the autumn, so it's got a lot better
09:32in the last sort of ten...
09:33In the time that I've been driving, the last 12 years,
09:35it's got noticeably better.
09:37Yeah. Couldn't you get out of your cab with a brush?
09:41They do... People actually have in the past got out with sand
09:44and put sand on the rails so that they can move.
09:47Yeah. Have they trained you in that?
09:49No. Right.
09:51We must talk much more about leaves on the line.
09:54It's your letters.
09:56Could we have a consonant, please?
09:58Thank you, Ian.
10:00And another one.
10:04And a vowel, please.
10:07And another vowel.
10:11Another vowel, please.
10:14And a consonant.
10:17And a consonant.
10:22And another consonant.
10:26And a final vowel, please.
10:28A final E.
10:3030 seconds.
10:46CLOCK TICKS
11:02Ian?
11:03Seven. Good. Aaron?
11:05A risky eight.
11:07Ian, what's your seven? Created.
11:09Aaron? Recoded.
11:12He's in the dictionary. Very well done.
11:14Well done. Yeah.
11:18In the corner.
11:20A couple more eights there, actually. Operated and carpeted as well.
11:23Thanks, Suzy.
11:25Aaron, the HR team leader.
11:27Have you got a team leader at home?
11:30Yeah. My girlfriend does all the roost.
11:33What's she called?
11:35She's called Laura. Are you going to marry Laura?
11:37I am indeed. Yeah, yeah.
11:39Don't know when, but it's going to happen at some point.
11:41Have you told Laura?
11:43I didn't say it was two Lauras.
11:48It's a joke. It's a joke, I'm...
11:50Laura mightn't think that's a joke.
11:53OK.
11:55Your letters.
11:57A consonant, please, Rachel. Thank you, Aaron.
12:00L.
12:02And another one.
12:04F.

13:01Aaron.
13:03Just a six. Ian.
13:05Six. Aaron.
13:07Flings.
13:09Ian. Bugles.
13:11In the corner.
13:13Bulges.
13:15Yes. Yep, bulges there for six.
13:17And you can get to an eight with this one, actually,
13:19but it's a legal term, so a bit more obscure.
13:21Fungible.
13:23And if an item, say, in a supermarket
13:25is entirely sort of swappable with another,
13:28interchangeable, it's fungible.
13:30Thanks, Suzy.
13:32So, Mr Leeds on the line.
13:34Yes.
13:36Why is the snow such a surprise to you?
13:38Again, because it doesn't happen very often.
13:40We can't gear ourselves up to deal with snow
13:42like if we were in alpine country
13:44because the investment would be too great to deal with.
13:47We just have to put up with it? Yeah.
13:49OK. And when I'm on a plane,
13:52the captain sometimes walks down the whole plane to say hello.
13:56Do you do that to the passengers on your train?
13:59I don't really meet the passengers and that much, to be honest.
14:03Shame, really. Your numbers.
14:05Could I have 1212, please, Rachel?
14:08Thank you, Ian. 1212.
14:11One large pile coming up for you.
14:13And they are 89517 and a large one, 100.
14:20And the target? 638.
14:23638.

14:58640.
15:00640. Aaron?
15:02637.
15:04OK.
15:06600. Yep. Times five are 100, 600.
15:09600.
15:11Nine fives are 45.
15:13They are.
15:15And then minus the eight. Yep.
15:17We haven't used that.
15:19One below. Rachel?
15:21This was possible this time.
15:24Take nine from 100 for 91
15:27and times that by seven for 637
15:30and then add on your one, 638.
15:33APPLAUSE
15:37Did you get that, Michael?
15:39I didn't, I'm afraid.
15:40Alistair Campbell got it.
15:42I bet he did. Yeah.
15:45And Stephen Fry.
15:47I want to talk to you about your new biography on Nigel Farage
15:52and you describe him as one of the most influential politicians
15:57of the 20th century,
15:59which seems odd since he's completely out of the picture now.
16:03Although he's doing his television work for another channel.
16:07What made you choose him?
16:09Well, nobody else had done him.
16:11I mean, I'd been thinking of writing a book about Farage for years
16:14and I thought, well, somebody else will get there first
16:16and there were sort of various...
16:18People tried and never got a publisher or whatever
16:20and eventually I thought, right, well, I'm going to have to do it
16:23because he has been such an important politician
16:26over the last 10 or 15 years.
16:28I mean, without Farage, in my view, Brexit would never have happened.
16:32He led UKIP in those years
16:35where they put the pressure on the Conservatives to concede a referendum.
16:39He was then involved in the referendum campaign.
16:41He then set up the Brexit Party
16:43to make sure that Brexit actually did go through
16:46and his presence and their success in the European elections
16:51led to the toppling of Theresa May.
16:54And what those campaigns did and the two parties did
16:59is that they paved the way, really,
17:01for the reorganisation, I suppose, of electoral politics in this country,
17:06for the Red Wall and all of these working-class people
17:09voting Conservatives in vast numbers
17:11at the same time when more and more and more middle-class people
17:14are voting Labour.
17:16And it's strange, if we take that one of the most influential politicians,
17:22that he didn't, in fact, end up in the House of Lords
17:25in a way you might think that he deserved to.
17:27Well, I mean, by rights, given that UKIP were a successful party
17:31and the Brexit Party too, I mean,
17:33they won two successive European elections,
17:35if we're going to have this absurdity at the House of Lords,
17:38then Farage should be there.
17:39And he resents the fact that the Conservatives never gave him a peerage.
17:43On the other hand, it makes him...
17:45It allows him to carry on giving this impression that he's an outsider,
17:50you know, challenging the establishment,
17:52whereas as soon as you take a peerage,
17:54you look like you're one of the establishment themselves.
17:56And that's one of the great contradictions of Farage.
17:58On the one hand, he loves challenging the establishment,
18:00but he's sort of desperate to join it in a way.
18:03You know, he goes back to all the old boys' events
18:06at his public school in South London all the time.
18:09You know, he belongs to gentlemen's clubs.
18:11And he's desperately annoyed that the government never consulted him
18:16when he was regularly meeting Trump,
18:18you know, that the Foreign Office weren't interested
18:20in what he had to say about Trump and what Trump was saying to him.
18:23So, Farage is a man full of contradictions like that.

26:11Ian?
26:12Six, not written down.
26:13What's your six?
26:14Unmade.
26:15Aaron?
26:16Maidens.
26:17Very good.
26:18In the corner.
26:19Oh, pathetic.
26:20Dunes or unsay?
26:22Only five.
26:24Can you say unsay?
26:26You can unsay something.
26:28Well, you can try to, anyway.
26:30Yes, this is essentially when you retract a statement.
26:33There is an eight there with dynamised.
26:35Make something dynamic.
26:36Ah.
26:37Now over to Susie.
26:39Well, I had something up on the dictionary here,
26:42and Michael saw it and thought,
26:43oh, I've always wanted to know about the origin of that word.
26:46And so I'm going to start with codswallop.
26:48And I'm often asked about codswallop,
26:50and there's a lovely story attached to it
26:52involving an individual called Hiram Codd,
26:54who was a maker of fizzy drinks,
26:56and it is said that he designed a bottle
26:59which had a stopper that made the content absolutely airtight
27:02to keep the fizz in.
27:04And wallop was an old dialect term for beer or weak alcohol.
27:08So codswallop was a kind of, you know,
27:11something that you could put into his watertight or airtight bottles
27:15and they would be forever sealed.
27:17But the story that I would really like to tell today
27:20is linked to codswallop in a way because it's hermetic.
27:23His bottles were hermetically sealed,
27:25and obviously it's quite a scientific term.
27:28But its origins are quite mysterious and quite mystical, really.
27:32And you have to look back to Hermes, the messenger of the gods.
27:36He's always portrayed as a travelling herald
27:39with a broad-brimmed hat and winged feet.
27:42And later the Roman equivalent was going to be Mercury,
27:44so very kind of swift as well.
27:46And Hermes was seen as the father of alchemy and astrology.
27:50And later on, the figure of Hermes,
27:53together with an Egyptian god called Thoth,
27:55were embodied in the story of an Egyptian priest
27:58who was living at the same time as Moses.
28:01And so many stories became attached to him
28:03of his magical powers and his wizardry.
28:06And one of the things that he is said to have invented
28:09was an airtight container,
28:12so he could magically create this sort of airtight seal, if you like.
28:17And such were the legends around him.
28:19Of course, alchemists relied on airtight seals
28:23because with their distillations and things going on
28:25in their equivalent of test tubes,
28:27it was really important to keep these airtight.
28:29So he was seen as being incredibly important.
28:31And so today, when something is airtight, without knowing it,
28:35we are looking back to quite magical beginnings
28:37and Hermetic means belonging to Hermes.

30:01It really is difficult, yes.
30:03We could just about get to a seven.
30:05I'm afraid I only got as far as four.
30:07Well...
30:09Lord and rude, as in screen.
30:11Well, this is where the dictionary helps
30:13because it's got historical words in it as well, of course.
30:15And outroll is a word meaning simply to roll out.
30:19So we talked about rolling out the vaccine programme, for example.
30:21We would be out...
30:23That would be an outroll, if you like.
